"WSS bn guns/lt artry - carriage styles and colors" Topic

I am currently painting/organizing some WSS 25mm, and I had a few questions about battalion guns/light artillery – please let me know if I am making any errors here in my assumptions:

- English and Scottish battalion guns were typically of the "galloper" style, with a split trail, unlike Continental ones – this may also have been true of Dutch guns in English service

- British and French carriages were painted red with black fittings

- Dutch and Prussian battalion guns were pained blue

- Imperial (Austrian) gun carriages were yellow-ochre, as later

- Bavarian light arty carriages were light blue or blue-grey

- The Danes didn't use battalion guns

Most sources here are the Condray pamphlets. Can anyone spot any obvious errors here.

Many thanks!

I am no expert but read a previous thread that debated British gun colours and grey was the colour as per later periods. Red allegedly being used in the ECW had fallen by the wayside, not sure when this occurred, i am doing British WSS and have used a galloper for there lightest guns. Hope this helps.

Dave Hollins author of the Osprey on the Austrian artillery, noted in an earlier post that yellow/ocher did not become regular for Imperial/Austrian guns until around 1750. Prior to that a light grey (natural wood?).
